- Filipino boyband auditions for “The X Factor UK 2017”
- JBK flies to UK and tests luck for “The X Factor UK”
As the fresh new season of “The X Factor UK” progresses, some acts have already blown the judges away. This includes the recent audition of Gaga Lord representing the Philippine flag.
Another Filipino Pride
All-Filipino boy band JBK has recently tried their luck at the said singing competition duplicating the humble beginnings of 4th Impact way back in 2015 and Ivy Grace Paredes from 2016 season. Just like the powerhouse girl group, JBK flew all the way from the Philippines to UK just to audition.
The band who is composed of Joshua Bulot, Bryan del Rosario and Kim Lawrenz Ordonio sang Sam Smith’s ‘Lay Me Down’.
Verdict
The group has already confirmed their appearance on the show and they actually left a good impression to the four judges by their undeniable charm and talent.
Their performance even left judge Louis Walsh with a flattering comment, “I love your dedication, flying from the Philippines, it was good.”
The proud half Filipina judge Nicole Scherzinger commended the group and adds, “You are making all the Filipinos proud right now.”
But one question remains. Can they get enough Yes to make it to the next round?
Watch their highly-anticipated appearance this coming episode of “The X Factor UK” on Monday (PH Time).
